New Commission
Chapter 5
I own nothing
Kratos, Atreus, and Mimir were approaching the monster temple. Finding Mina wasn't their only objective, Star asked them to check in on Eclipsa. They approached the large doors and Kratos pounded on it. After a minute the door opened and in the doorway was a massive monster, Eclipsa's monster lover Globgor. He narrowed his eyes at them "Kratos, I heard rumors you were in Mewni, did that witch Moon or those glorified bureaucrats send you here for our heads" he asked, his voice deep and rumbling.
Kratos shook his head "neither Moon or the commission sent us, the acting queen sent us to check up on you." Suddenly a voice spoke up behind Globgor "Star is such a kind girl, better than most of the people in that castle." Eclipsa stepped out beside her lover "good to see you two again my lady" Mimir said. Kratos held him up, surprising the couple "Mimir, what happened to you" Globgor asked. "Well not long after you two were imprisoned that self-righteous Arse Odin had me trapped inside a tree, nothing could cut through it so the only way for me to travel with these two was to chop me head off" Mimir explained.
"So, Odin finally had enough of your morality" Eclipsa said before giving a sigh "poor Freya, having to be married to such a beastly god." "Aye, these two are much better company, though I wish Kratos would call me by my name rather than just 'head'" Mimir said. Kratos simply grunted before Globgor spoke up "I doubt this Star would send the Ghost of Sparta here just to check on us" he said. Kratos was annoyed at being called his old title but let it go "we're searching for Mina Loveberry, she was last seen here so we're starting our search here" he explained. Globgor snorted "well you're in luck, she's been skulking around here for the past few days" he said.
"no doubt she wishes to harm us and is waiting for the most opportune moment" Globgor added with a growl. Kratos noticed Eclipsa's attention was elsewhere, he looked in the direction she was and saw it was Atreus she was looking at. Eclipsa noticed that Kratos had caught on "and who is this young man" she asked with a motherly smile. "He is my son, Atreus" he said, motioning the boy to greet the dark queen. "It's nice to meet you my lady" Atreus said, bowing his head.
Eclipsa giggled "well aren't you polite, good to know you're being taught something besides destroying everything in your path" she said, her tone joking. Kratos simply grunted at this when suddenly Mimir yelled "BROTHER TO YOUR RIGHT." Kratos unfolded his shield as he spun around just as a large rock was about to hit him. The rock smashed against the shield, sending bits everywhere. Globgor protected Eclipsa with his massive hand and Atreus and Mimir were shielded by Kratos.
Someone crashed down a few feet away, spraying dust. When it cleared in revealed Mina in her muscular form. "If you think a fallen god will stop me dark queen then you're a fool" she said, her voice distorted. Moon brought out the wand, Globgor raised his fists, and Atreus trained his bow on the mad warrior. Kratos folded his shield and approached her "Loveberry, Star Butterfly has sent us to bring you back to the castle" he said, wanting to avoid an unnecessary fight. Mina growled "never, I won't cooperate with a monster sympathizer."
Kratos handed Mimir to Atreus "boy, watch over the head" he ordered. Before Atreus could respond Mina launched at Kratos however he grabbed her arm and tossed her away from the temple. She landed in a large pond nearby, about twenty feet from the temple. Kratos soon reached the pond and glared as she stood in the water "this is your last chance, come with us to Butterfly castle or be dragged back" he said. "NEVER, not when it's run by traitors" Mina replied.
She flexed her muscles and unleashed a shockwave that sent water flying everywhere. She launched at Kratos again preparing a punch, this time he brought out his shield and blocked her punch. He parried throwing her off balance before slamming his shield into her stomach. She gagged as the wind was knocked from her lungs, the world spun as she was flung back before landing back in the water. Mina tried and failed to control her body's reaction as she got on her hands and knees and threw up.
She steadied her breathing as Kratos approached her and felt something buried in the mud. Just as Kratos was about to reach her she pulled with all her might, out of the mud came an old fallen tree. She slammed it into Kratos sending him into the air, as he reached the ground she flew towards him. She slammed into Kratos, they had left the pond as she slammed him through rocks and trees. They entered a clearing with some old ruins and Mina threw Kratos into a stone pillar.
Kratos stood up and cracked his neck, he grabbed Mina's arm as she threw another punch at him and spun around, slamming her into the pillar. The pillar gave a loud crack and began to fall towards them. Kratos quickly threw Mina and got out of the way as the pillar fell on the dazed warrior. The dust cleared and revealed Mina back in her normal form covered in parts of the pillar and unconscious. Kratos moved them and checked Mina, thankfully she wasn't seriously injured.
A few minutes later Kratos returned to the monster temple, Mina over his shoulder and tied in chains made by Brok and Sindri. Eclipsa smiled at him "it's good to see you haven't lost your touch Kratos, not to mention you've learned restraint, before you would have just snapped her neck and be done with it" she said, they had watched the whole fight with the all-seeing eye spell. Kratos merely grunted as Atreus handed Mimir to him. "Come boy, our search is over" he said, Atreus nodded "yes father" he turned to Eclipsa and Globgor "it was nice meeting you" he said. The couple waved as they left "you as well Atreus, feel free to visit when you have some free time" Eclipsa said.
The lovers went back inside and heard a yawn "granny, what was all that noise" a tired voice asked. Eclipsa smiled "oh nothing Moon, just some friends helping us with a pest" she said. Standing before the two was the missing queen wearing a black night gown with bed head, her long hair in desperate need of combing. Satisfied with the answer moon went to the kitchen to get some breakfast.
Once she was out of hearing range Globgor turned to his Mewman lover "how long do you plan to hide her away" he asked. "Until the time is right sweetie, now I'm sure Meteora is ready for some breakfast as well" Eclipsa said, Globgor shrugged and followed her.
Meanwhile on the other side of Mewni Macha was becoming increasingly frustrated, no matter how hard she tried she couldn't get a lock on Moon. When she tried it was like she was everywhere and nowhere, it was like something was actively hiding the queen. Yet she sensed no chaos involvement, even looking into the future couldn't give her any clues. Suddenly the mirror phone she was given rang, Macha opened it, "Macha it's Star, there's some serious warp stuff going on" Star said. Macha sighed "Moon will have to wait" she said before using a pair of dimensional scissors to return to the castle.
